The month of April comes with a plethora of new features and updates for Xoxoday Empuls, as we cope up with remote working forces amidst the pandemic. This month’s release note features a special COVID-preparedness survey, formidable UI/UX improvements, and much more. Let’s look at what the April update brings forth.
With the special survey on preparedness against coronavirus, organizations can ask important questions on how their team is holding up in these turbulent times.
Now that the COVID-19 pandemic has been hovering over us for a good amount of time, a COVID-preparedness survey is a need of the hour.
The employees are not in their best emotional state and it is crucial that the organization gives them a hint that “we are there for you”. The most lucid form of communication for this problem is the COVID-preparedness survey.
Admins can see this survey under My Survey tab of Surveys feature.
Not only would this give an idea of how the teams are holding up, but the questions also clear out a lot of doubts with respect to communication, team-coordination, health, and fitness of the family and special care, if needed, to particular employees. With the morale down and people in fear, a positive message in the form of a COVID-preparedness survey would be a relief to the employees.

With regular usage, the developers, admins, and the users have it in their mind about how a particular feature could be aesthetically pleasing, more click-able, and easy on the eyes. These minute and considerable changes in the update revolutionize the user experience altogether.
The UI/UX improvements make Empuls a seamless experience for all the stakeholders in terms of communication, sharing of information, announcements, surveys, and more.
The UI/UX overhaul can be seen and felt throughout the course of the Empuls platform. With this product update, the UI-improvements focus on maintaining its uniformity.
A detailed representation of budgets being utilized goes a long way in deciding on the results, outcomes, differences, and the further course of action. For that, the reports dashboard has come up with the budget utilization graph.
The budget utilization graph really helps in getting a gist of the allocation of budgets, how it’s been utilized, and how efficient did it turn out to be. With the new update, now access budget utilization graphs across departments, locations, etc so as to plan the budgets accordingly.
The managers, HR, and CXOs can keep track of spending in a better manner to calculate the ROI.
Here are the salient features of this dashboard
The toggle on/off feature in awards is now available. The admins and managers can now toggle awards on and off with ease.
With due research, we understood that organizations generally have a quarterly rewarding cycle where the action of rewarding/nominating team members is open for a defined period of time.
This really gives the control of rewarding in the super admin’s hands and that is why the latest Empuls update allows super-admins to enable/disable awards for better control.
With a major overhaul of the subscription and payments dashboard, the procedure is much simpler now.
With seamless payment mechanism, hassle-free subscription management, and easy cancellation, the new interface is smoothly defined in terms of user experience.
Not only is it easier to operate with a well-defined user interface, but the experience is also seamless on the following fronts:
With the new update, there’s an option with which the stakeholders can be notified when an instant gift is given out. This is similar to getting notified when automated gifts are rolled out.
Instant gifts act as a crucial motivator for employees and what motivates them is the nudge that notifies them about the reward.
This update gives the gift-holders a sense of praise and recognition while other stakeholders can be notified of their latest accolades.
That’s all for the Empuls Product Release for the month of April 2020. If you have any specific questions, feel free to contact us, or book a demo.
